Livingstone Lodge

All good clean nice brekfest

First of all I admire Elton's personality so friendly and hospitable!! The service was excellent too including clean rooms ,good breakfast, communication with the drivers everything 100% enjoyable. Thank you Marina and David Belenky.

Bathroom is quite dirty and shower option is inconvenient. Location is ok but no dining option around. Initially they offerered a room without AC. But finally offered to change in a much smaller room (not good for 3 people). Otherwise ok.

Very peaceful spot to spend a few days. Staff were very courteous and helpful especially with booking events and ensuring you had transportation if needed. If you plan a visit make sure you take advantage of the awesome trea**ents provided by the on-site massage therapists. All in all a very pleasant experience.

We recently stayed at Livingstone Lodge the night of April 22 - it was a last-minute booking and we were charged $110 USD. It was a shock, as the hotel looks nothing like the pictures online. We had originally booked two nights - April 23-25, which we promptly cancelled when we saw the hotel. We were charged a penalty of one night for cancelling. We were shocked when we arrived - considering the hotel charged over $180 CAD per night for the original booking. For an additional $80 per night, we moved to Shearwater Explorers Village - there is NO comparison. That is a REAL hotel! I believe this hotel is grossly misrepresented - the photos are enhanced and I find it hard to believe the reviews. Our room was like a prison cell, with no furnishing. There is no curtain around the shower, so we stood in water to use the sink. Breakfast was pathetic - beans, egg and bacon (I am vegetarian) and no fruit whatsoever. Coffee was self serve instant using a kettle with a too short cord. Even the so-called reception is pathetic - a tiny office with a folding chair and table - I've seen better at construction sites! I believe what we were charged is robbery and am trying to get a refund of the penalty charged when we cancelled. What is interesting is I now see rooms advertised for about $50 - approximately one third of the robbery price we were charged. The one star allocated is for the staff.. They are lovely - I feel sorry they have to deal with clients booking such a sub-standard property. If the owners are not prepared to invest some money in this place, at least represent it more truthfully and charge a lower price!

Amazing staff and service. Wonderful views. Immaculate grounds and ambience. Really felt pampered although it is a fairly large hotel. Very romantic and well appointed. The location was like something out of a movie or novel. The dining experience was excellent and everything was fresh and well prepared. The drinks were especially interesting and well thought out.

loved the property. I advised would have been nice to have had a frig in the room.

Lovely, clean and welcoming lodge. Beautiful poolside breakfast/tea and coffee area. Staff were very helpful with suggestions for visiting attractions and organised these and transport/guides quickly. We also had an issue with a double payment which was due to no fault of the lodge. However, they went out if their way to get it sorted out for us. Highly recommend Livingstone Lodge when visiting Victoria Falls.

Loved our stay here. Very helpful and friendly staff.
